These handguns are built to the same quality and reliability standards
that have been part of the Rossi name for over 100 years. Rossi offers
medium and small frame revolvers in various barrel lengths-all feature
deep, contoured finger grooves in the grip for a solid grasp and maximum
shooting comfort. Rossi revolvers are machined from forged steel and
will routinely fire powerful .38 Special +P rounds for the lifetime of
your revolver.

Great budget .357 pistol. Never had any issues with it. Wished they were still available. Always great service from Buds!

I got my Rossi in right before Christmas, and it was a beautiful gun right out of the box. Superb Finish, and I took it to the Range and shot close to 200 rounds through it, using 38 special. Did not have one issue and it shoots straight. I would tell anybody looking at the more expensive 357's, that this Rossi will shoot with the best of them.

What a fantastic revolver this Rossi hits it out of the park. The fit and finish are top notch. It feels solid, in my hands, and its a quality built revolver. It fired just fine at the range with 38 spl rounds, the felt recoil was next to nothing. The trigger in double action was long, and predicable. The single action trigger was pretty much a hair trigger, but smooth none the less. The sights are near perfect, and adjustable I see no issues with them. The grips are pretty good, just wish they could be a tad longer. Its a very well balanced revolver thanks to the six inch barrel, and it was a joy to shoot. I can find no fault with this revolver honestly! This is my experience so far and I'm pretty pleased. If your on the fence, and your looking for a low cost 357 than look no further. Take the plunge you wont regret it. Funny enough shortly after I made this purchased it sold out, but frankly I'm not a bit surprised. :)

Great revolver, the finish is excellent. Verry accurate with little recoil and a comfortable grip. The sights were perfectly tuned straight out of the box. Would recommend this revolver to anyone.

This is the second Rossi r97206 i have bought from Buds, First off buds service was good no issues. Now the first 972 was exellent good fit and finish and cylinder lockup. This one however is Horrible, tooling marks and wavy metal all over the frame, covered in scrathces, cylinder lockup and alignment is good on only 1 cylinder. I cannot beleive these 2 guns come from the same company i am very dissapointed. I will be contacting Rossi about this.

Like every other review, quick service, no complaints regarding the Buds crew. Had my eyes on a .357 4 inch for a while, going back and forth between Ruger and S&W. Couldn’t pass up the excellent deal on the 6 inch 972 Rossi, $309!!! Smooth trigger, accurate, dead on right out the box. My 11 year old had 3 in the bullseye, other 3 within 9 at 7 feet! My son shot a box of .38 special Perfecta (“dad .357 kicks too hard, please only load .38s…”), I blasted .357 Perfecta. Beyond happy with my purchase. Seen some bad reviews about Rossi, no complaints from me, accurate, smooth trigger, and tight lock of cylinder. Santa may bring another Rossi for crushmas!

This is a really pretty revolver. The SS is nicely polished. iIt is very accurate and a pleasure to shoot. At 20 yards, the Grouping was about 3 inches shooting freestyle and standing using two hands. The trigger pulls about 3# on my digital meter for SA. However, on my second outing, the cylinder stopped advancing when pulling the hammer back for SA, and then stopped advancing on DA trigger pulls. I really like this gun and Taurus Rossi customer service was very nice when I went on line to report the malfunction, but I wonder if I should have gone for a Ruger or SW instead. It will take about six weeks to go through the warranty center for the repairs. I really want to have a good experience and receive a fully functioning revolver that will hold up to normal use. I'll post an update if allowed. Bud's was great to deal with and as far as Bud's goes, I'll be doing more business in the future!
